View Full Version : BMW Rally + Camping @ Tail of the Dragon - May 16-18th
M3Alpine99 04-28-2008, 09:36 PM Anyone up for this? What started as an e30 rally last year has now become just a BMW Rally. We went 3 times last year and it was a blast. Eventually e36 M3's were driving down from Cincy to participate so we figure open it up for everyone :)
Plan as of now:
Leave Atlanta area around 2pm Friday May 16th and drive up to campsite. Get setup and sleep. Wake early for a Dragon Run and head over to the Skyway and all over the place. Get some food and do it all again. Head back to camp for bull shitting and dinner and fun. Sunday we repeat in the morning and then Convoy back to ATL...
Anyone that wants more details just post and I will PM with the full schedule.
Heading to the dragon:

I got called out to a meeting in the middle of forming a response.
Hope this is better.
How in the hell does philip know what halston's 8==> looks like? I do believe that he was doing more than delivering parts the other day. Me thinks this is how he keeps business at Global. :bj
CDM5GO 04-29-2008, 02:40 PM Much better, thanks. :thumbup:

One of the single best roads in the country and that is not even the best road in the area ;)
PointMEby 04-30-2008, 03:56 PM Do it!
I really want to but a Friday/Saturday is mad money for me work wise and I really can't afford to miss another whole weekend in May (already have two missed weekends planned). I'll let you know!
Xz Dark Star zX 04-30-2008, 04:01 PM damn!! thats the night of the eagles concert :( i cant make it
M3Alpine99 04-30-2008, 04:03 PM damn!! thats the night of the eagles concert :( i cant make it

M3Alpine99 05-01-2008, 09:49 PM Do it!
hennarot e 05-05-2008, 11:21 AM this would be alot of fun, just not running around on 14's....watch me go into a ditch, gimme a few weeks to get wheels and tires and i'll be up there with you guys on the next run.
PhilipM3 05-05-2008, 11:54 AM I really need to get an E30 that I can beat on.

What is wrong with 14's? kendogg auto-x on 14s and so do others. Come out and have some fun.
I really need to get an E30 that I can beat on.
Or you can bring your e36 m3 and just cruise like I will be in the 5er. I plan on being last at every section.
I can't seem to figure out the stigma that we will be racing down the tail of the dragon. We will NOT be doing this and the attendees are much more adult than your average meet. The average age may be in the high 20's.
Bring out the cars for some camping and good campfire time and make some new friends. Forget about wheels and tires and all of that worry.
Will be in a 1986 535i w/o Sport Suspension and stock suspension...
